See Fed. 23 R. Civ. P. 4(m) and 41(b); and Civil Local Rule 41.1(a). See also Hells Canyon 24 Preservation Council v. U.S. Forestry Serv.,

(9th Cir. 2005) 25 (holding that district court may dismiss under Rule 41(b) sua sponte). The Court, 26 noting that Raygoza’s counsel was capable of filing electronically, required him to 27 file his response even if the Clerk’s office was physically inaccessible. The Court 28 also cautioned him that if he failed to show cause, this action would be dismissed. 1 Since then, Raygoza has filed nothing. This action is therefore DISMISSED 2 || WITHOUT PREJUDICE for failure to serve and failure to prosecute. 3 4 IT IS SO ORDERED. 5 || Dated: May 26, 2020 6 [ WM f 4.
